How to Choose a Sanitas Plan

Important: Sanitas policy benefits, exclusions, waiting periods, authorisation rules, medical network access and visa suitability can change. Cover also depends on the specific policy chosen, the applicant’s personal terms and conditions, health declaration, acceptance terms and any individual exclusions applied by Sanitas. Always check the actual current Sanitas policy wording, certificate wording, general terms and personal policy conditions before relying on any cover or making a visa, medical or financial decision.

Start with your reason for cover. Visa and residency applicants usually need a no-copay, visa-suitable policy; EU citizens registering residence may use a different route; and people simply wanting private healthcare have more flexibility. Below are the most common situations and the plans usually considered for each, subject to current terms and acceptance.

Visa

If You Are a Visa Applicant (NLV / DNV)

Sanitas Residents and Residents Platinum are commonly used for the NLV and DNV. Compare them on our Residents vs Residents Platinum page, or see best Sanitas plan for visa applicants. NLV quote · DNV quote.

EU

If You Are an EU / EEA Citizen (CUE / Green Certificate)

EU citizens registering residence often use no-copay comprehensive cover such as Más Salud (no-copay) rather than the visa-route plans. See health insurance for EU citizens and the CUE page.

Retirees

If You Are a Retiree or Over 60

Retirees often compare Residents and Residents Platinum, and should review acceptance carefully. See best Sanitas plan for retirees and the over-60s guide / over-60 quote.

Families

If You Are a Family

Families often consider Más Salud Familias or a Residents family policy. See best Sanitas plan for families and family health insurance.

Autónomos

If You Are Self-Employed / Autónomo

Autónomos may consider Sanitas Profesionales or a visa-route plan depending on their situation. See best Sanitas plan for autónomos and self-employed health insurance.

Students

If You Are a Student

Students usually look at Sanitas International Students or a student-visa-suitable policy. See best Sanitas plan for students and student visa health insurance.
